Aging: Your DNA Is Not Your Destiny Ft. David Sinclair (Full Event) | Think Inc.

$Jon Haidt announces a new book 👍 #shorts Everyone’s talking about Jonathan Haidt’s latest essay “Why the Past 10 Years of American Life Have Been Uniquely Stupid”, published last week in The Atlantic. It’s been called the best explanation of how social media is making us unfit for democracy. And in it, Jon uses the metaphor of the tower of Babel. If you went to a religious school, maybe you know the story- but if you don’t, the cliff notes version is that after the Great Flood, a group of people speaking one shared language built a tower tall enough to reach heaven. This made God angry, and he thinks that these people have gotten too big for their boots, and are going to get more and more cocky. So he confuses their language so they can’t understand each other, therefore stopping their ability to work together. According to Jon Haidt, a social psychologist, this is what social media is doing to us. We hoped social media would help us work together, but instead it is fracturing the way we communicate, and it’s having terrible effects on our society. Jon also talked on Bari Weiss’ podcast about the same topic. And if you haven’t yet, grab yourself a SIGNED copy of Jon’s must-read book, “The Righteous Mind” from our shop. We only have one copy left! Head to the link in our bio. Subscribe to Think Inc. → http://bit.ly/33tJYEN ABOUT THINK INC.
